22 Adorable Nurse Tattoos

There is an intimate connection between the nursing profession and women as they express their nurturing side. For years women have gone into the nursing profession with a willing heart, ever since Florence Nightingale became a legend as a nurse for wounded soldiers. Tattoo artists express the many sides of being a nurse through beautiful tattoos. Nurse Tattoos are the province of the wildest male fantasies. There is something about the fantasy of a female nurse that sets male hearts beating extra fast. The very idea of being tended by a young and hot looking nurse makes injuries seem more bearable.

A nurse is represented both in a real and symbolic manner in tattoo designs. When represented in a real manner the nurse is shown in the medical profession. Typically she is shown wearing a uniform with a Red Cross sign telling of her healing profession. The healer role played by the nurse can also be used in a symbolic way in tattoos. The pretty nurse healing a wounded heart can be a fun and playful way to express the idea of recovering from a heartbreak. Many tattoos showing nurses explore the naughty side of nurses as seen in male fantasies. The injection syringe is a perfect symbol of both pain and pleasure as the healing medicine gets into the blood-stream. When the syringe is held up by the gentle hands of a ravishing nurse it can be the ultimate male fantasy. Men’s tattoos showing nurses depict figures straight out of dreams with perfect bosoms, curves and long legs that never seem to end. The uniform adds an extra dose of sex appeal to the nurse tattoo design. Many tattoos are inked in a delicate shaded manner to give a realistic feel to the design. Traditional designs showing the nursing profession often come with roses and gorgeous colorful frames as a part of the design. Whether beautiful and healing, or naughty and wild, nurse tattoo designs surely offer a world of excitement.
